The radical ideological doctrines of Russian communism of the late 19th – early 20th century gave rise to the ideal of a revolutionary and the corresponding way of existence, approaching the limit to the religious. The article shows a set of practices that constituted the phenomenon of secular revolutionary salvation. Using a methodology of discursive analysis, the author shows the complexity and ambiguity of communist soteriology. Salvation was constituted by different practices and could have different existential content on a case-by-case basis. Therefore, it is legitimate to talk not about the presence of the phenomenon of secular salvation in Russian communism, but about the discourses of such.

The scientific novelty of this article is based on the application of the methods of socio-historical epistemology to the processes of institutionalization of religious studies as a scientific object. Religious studies has reached a high, mature level of institutional, theoretical, methodological, sociocultural, and existential development which is expressed in the competition of different methodological strategies or a variety of methodological means which allow us to form a scientific approach towards religious phenomena. In particular, this article covers several aspects which testify to the “maturity” of religious studies as a socio-humanitarian science, namely: a) competition among three research strategies – objectivist, interpretative, and preformistic ones; b) competition between the naturalistic and the anti-naturalistic programs; c) a dispute among faculties and communities (scientific disciplines as leaders and outsiders); d)a struggle for legitimacy among the paradigms of secularization, desecularization, and postsecularization. The author has come to the conclusion that religious studies, being a part of a general project for the development of the social / social sciences, enters a post-secular stage which opens new theoretical and methodological possibilities for researching the sphere of the religious, the sacred, the numinous. One of the important steps for further methodological progress is the deconstruction of the paradigms of secularism and “de-secularism”, the process of building a more flexible and systematic methodological strategy for studying the field of religious phenomena.

The article provides a general overview of the “soft power” theory and the features of its perception in Russia. The author analyses the fluctuations between the communicative and confrontation interpretations of the “soft power” concept in Russian foreign policy as well as the circumstances that influenced the shift towards the confrontation interpretation. The author assumes that the drift of the American concept of “soft power” towards “sharp power” in Russia is determined by the fundamental difference between American and Russian foreign policies as universalist and opposed to universalism. In the conclusion, the urgent problems of shaping and promoting the “soft power” of Russia are outlined.

The article examines main directions of the Russian-North Korean cooperation in the context of the coronavirus pandemic in 2020–2021. The summit of the Russian and North Korean leaders in 2019 created expectations for expanded bilateral cooperation in the areas not prohibited by the UN Security Council resolutions. Due to the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, however, the DPRK has severely limited contacts with the outside world since January 2020. Transport links with other countries were suspended, foreigners were prohibited from entering the country, and export and import operations were broken off. By April 2021 most of the foreign diplomats and all foreign employees of international humanitarian organizations had left the DPRK. Nevertheless, Russia retained its presence in North Korea and continued to provide humanitarian assistance to that country. Petroleum products supplies from Russia continued until August 2020. Bilateral trade in 2020 decreased by 11% compared to 2019. The mutual exchange of delegations in 2020 was frozen, however, regular contacts of diplomats with the local authorities continued both in Pyongyang and in Moscow. A new educational project was launched in 2021. During online sessions researches from leading Russian universities deliver lectures to teachers and researchers from the North Korean institutes. Thus, the two countries are trying to maintain contacts and develop cooperation even in the current tough conditions.

The main periods of formation and development of the welfare state are analyzed. As the first stage, the foundation of the “minimum welfare” states is determined during the development of capitalism and the formation of parliamentary democracy. The second stage – the birth of the modern welfare state: 1880–1914 – is associated with the introduction of social insurance mechanisms in most states as the main institutional instrument of the welfare state. It is noted that the “Golden Age” of welfare states is constituted by the growth of social spending in all developed countries of the world.

The paper focuses on A. Nixon's approach to understanding new atheism as a new relevant form of religiosity in society. Analysis of the dissertation study helps to understand how the author's position was formed and what is the methodology for his understanding of new atheism. Nixon defines his task when discussing the history of free thought in an attempt to contextually analyze the antireligious movement of the 21st century (new atheists and subgroups). His historical analysis of irreligia is a story that focuses on the appearance of differences between groups over time and the motives for such divergence and the appearance of groups. He links the measurements he discovered in his research to a longer history of the anti-religious movement.
